ABOUT
Tabletop design with small footprint integrates with modern instruments and benches
-190°C - 400°C (600°C option available, see HCP621G-MPS)
Fits up to Ø26 mm hexagonal thermal block (optional upgrade for larger sample area available)
Sealed chamber with gas purging and/or vacuum capabilities
4+ independent electrical probes with remote mechanical positioning
Up to 7 probers available
The HCP421V-MPS is a compact benchtop probing station with modular components that can be customized for nearly an application. The base model includes a 421 heating and cooling core, capable of precision temperature control from -190C to 400C under vacuum or ambient conditions. 4 independent electrical probers are controlled via micrometer dials for XYZ prober control even when the chamber is sealed and under vacuum.
The 45mm viewing aperture on the chamber lid provides excellent optical access of the entire sample area, and is comptatible with a wide range of optical analysis tools. The HCP421V-MPS can even be mounted directly to an upright microscope to add temperature control, atmospheric control and electrical probing capabilities into a single instrument.
Upgrade to the HCP421V-MPS+ fully customizable model to add or remove probers, change electrical feedthrough types, add RF probers with rotational control, high vacuum compatability, larger sample areas and more!
